I’m looking to buy a piece of land that unfortunately is in a flood plane.
There is a shelf on the land that is out of the flood plane by about 10 feet, but unbuildable because of an easement. Still plenty of land left over.
1. Can you build up an area through dirt work to get it out of a flood plane for purposes of insurance and flooding?
2. What kind of engineer do I need to hire to make sure it’s done right? There is a creek on one side to drain into.
